Thank you, Kathy. I contacted them and they said they would get back to me within a week so hopefully I will get the lower price. I have a couple of problems with my FTM as when I originally purchased my HP computer, Windows 7, I had them install 32 and 64 capabilities to support FTM. When my computer crashed and HP sent me a new disk, they must not have included 32...only 64 and I have not been able to add NOTES since. Also, for some unknown reason, my homepage FTM icon shows a round circle with 2 yellow and 2 blue triangles?? It's the only one that has this and I have no idea what it is nor how to get rid of it........
